Charlotte Zajc, PhD, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, Austria, explores optimizing CAR T-cell therapies to enhance efficacy while minimizing side effects such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS). Dr Zajc emphasizes the importance of controlling CAR T-cells within the patient, suggesting methods such as employing ON- and OFF-switches with small molecule drugs or resting CAR T-cells through dasatinib administration. This interview took place at the EBMT-EHA 6th European CAR T-cell Meeting in Valencia, Spain.
